I had a little one absent the day before. I assumed it was because he had a dr. appointment or he was sick. Well, when he came in I asked him why he was absent. He walked over to me a quietly whispered, 'I had to go to the hospital!'. Knowing that he has a flair for the dramatic, I asked for details. He then whispered, 'I had a paperclip stuck in my butt.' Not fully understanding, I asked for clarification. 'Was it in like the part you sit on or the part you poop from?'. Keep in mind, I'm dealing with a 7 year old...He replied, 'The part you poop from and the doctor had to look at it and try to get it out. It was really stuck and now it hurts to poop.'

Allow me to clarify. He had a paperclip up his butt. A paperclip. Up. His. Butt. I suppose you might be wondering why, as I clearly was. He said he put it up there because he couldn't poop.
